A recent trip to the grocery store revealed some interesting and potentially misleading things:
Fast food diet? 7 lbs a week? Are they joking? Losing weight too fast is not healthy – you’ll lose all-important muscle, and when you stop starving yourself, you’ll probably gain all the weight back – and more!
“Be the tortoise, not the hare!”
I also believe these weekly weight loss goals on ‘Celebrity Fit Club’ are excessive, and the time frames too short, for effective, sustainable weight loss. Weight loss requires a sustained change in eating habits, not a 4-week special “diet,” and then back to the usual routine…
Weight loss of more than 1-2 lbs a week may result in loss of muscle, and sets you up for rebound weight gain later…
